Chapter 951 Perfecting the system, provocation by elves
After lunch, Shado sent Niya back to the Tower of Time, while he himself disappeared and wandered around the territory.
As the time approaches the end of the year, the temperature in the south is getting colder and colder, and the residents are obviously not as energetic as they were in spring and summer.
However, compared to the Savile Territory citizens who have settled down to spend the winter at this time, the Daxia Territory citizens are still much more diligent. Not to mention the development department, which includes most of the Territory citizens, are still working on the frozen land to wait for the coming year.
of sowing.
People in the logistics department don't need to go out, but they are inseparable from the work of the territory. They bake bricks, make clothes, build wooden houses, prepare food, and even have to find children who are playing and can't find them.
However, now that the population of the territory has reached nearly 10,000, it can no longer be easily managed when there were only dozens or hundreds of people in the past. Although Xia Duo has many insights on the earth, it is difficult for the managers of the territory to understand them all at once.
Today, it was rare for him to observe the public sentiment in the territory. He saw more than one strong man with sound hands and feet doing nothing in the territory, and he even molested the female staff of the logistics department.
Of course, this kind of thing did not require him to come forward in person. After returning to the lord's villa, Sha Duo directly called Leiden over.
"Sir, the code has not been completed yet. Do you want to check it now?"
"It's not a matter of the law to call you here. Let me ask you, has the registration of the citizens been completed?"
"grown ups?"
Leiden didn't understand why the lord mentioned this. Hasn't this been completed a long time ago? And a copy of the list of subjects is on the bookshelf in the lord's study.
"Then why are there still idle people in the territory?" Xia Duo asked.
At present, Daxia Territory is still an open territory, and all territorial citizens are under unified management. In theory, there will not be even a single idler who is not included in the establishment.
Of course, Xia Duo does not plan to continue using this enterprise-style management method forever. After the land is granted, only civil servants will be included in the establishment. They mainly rely on laws (macro-control) to manage the territory, rather than directly commanding everyone.
individual.
But now, the territory development has not yet been completed, so we still need to concentrate the maximum strength and use every available territory citizen without wasting any human resources.
Upon hearing Sha Duo's question, Leiden immediately knelt down on one knee and said cautiously: "Sir, I need to know more about the situation before I can answer."
"Yes, I authorize you to select an inspection team to deal with this matter specifically. This inspection team will continue to be maintained afterwards!"
"Yes!" Leiden lowered his head deeply, probably guessing the Lord's intention.
…
After Leiden left, Chateau sat quietly in the study for a while, thinking silently.
Territory construction was not something that could be accomplished overnight. The issue of supervision was something he had wanted to raise for a long time. The discovery of idlers outside the official establishment this time was just an excuse.
If you want to be a hands-off shopkeeper, you must try your best to improve the territory management system, especially as there will be more and more spellcasters in the territory in the future. As the saying goes, "With a sharp blade in hand, a murderous intention arises." If he is absent for a long time, there may not be people who will have other ideas.
A mature and complete system can avoid most of the problems of failure.
However, in the magical world, there is such a huge gap in individual strength, and the experience on earth may not be perfectly transplanted. What the future holds depends on Xia Duo slowly adapting to the actual situation.
But no matter what, he generally believes in order, law, and the power of the human heart. Although these powers are invisible and intangible, they can actually affect everyone.
And in the magical world, these powers are not necessarily invisible and intangible!
Ryan has always said that "power is born from order" and uses this as a guideline for his actions. Sha Duo can't see the so-called "power of order" yet, but he can't completely deny its existence.
Perhaps the glorious holy power is a kind of power of order.
Chateau was thoughtful, then took out a pen and paper, wrote a few sentences on the paper, and had it given to Leiden.
…
Soon, time came to January of the year 837 of the Nese calendar, and the New Year celebration was held on the tenth day of January.
After spending the last few days of leisurely life in the Tower of Time, Shado and Niya embarked on the teleportation circle to Severdon to meet the unknown fate.
Giles Tower.
As soon as Shado and Niya walked out of the teleportation room, they heard bursts of noise coming from the corridor outside, which was particularly harsh in the usually quiet mage tower.
Sha Duo subconsciously slowed down and pulled Niya, "Wait a minute, listen to what they are saying first!"
Niya's status is extraordinary. If she shows up, those people may not continue the discussion. Even Xia Duo himself can probably guess the changes in Severton from the changes in his own clouds he has observed during this period.
However, even if the teleportation circle is being used, there is still a lot of movement. Seeing that no one has come out of the teleportation room, everyone outside quickly realized something, and hurriedly left a few words to talk about it later, and then started talking one by one.
All left.
Fortunately, what they discussed was not an unspeakable secret, otherwise they would not have communicated outside the teleportation room.
As for Xia Duo, he was listening intently, but suddenly there was nothing to say. This feeling was really unpleasant. Looking at Niya's hesitant expression, Xia Duo said helplessly:
"Don't worry, I won't go to any exchange meeting. It's just that the higher-ups may not think so. I may have to go then."
What those people outside the teleportation room were discussing just now was Master Cormanso's provocation. Of course, this was said in private, and it was openly held in the form of an exchange meeting.
According to those people, there have been several high-level mages in the Seven Towers in the past few days who could not stand the provocation of the elves and rashly agreed to engage in a spell showdown at the exchange meeting.
The spell showdown at this kind of exchange meeting is naturally a performance, with more demonstration elements, but people may make mistakes, horses may stumble, and elf mages will also lose control of their spells.
Although you may not necessarily lose your life, it is inevitable to be disgraced and lose the face of the Seven Towers.
Xia Duo knew this very well, but he also knew that sometimes face might be more important than life, especially in the eyes of those in power.
Although those people just talked about the situation on the Seven Towers side and not the situation on the Elf side, from their tone, Xia Duo could also tell that the situation seemed a little bad.
What is even worse is himself. He is now a typical example of the Seven Towers. If the higher-ups ask him to come forward, there is no way he can refuse.
Maybe this is the idea above?
But then Xia Duo rejected this idea. Arcanist is not an existence that can be discarded at will, let alone that he has such great potential that he can almost be cultivated as the seed of a great arcanist.
It's useless to think too much now. Maybe we can test it when we meet Archmage Greta later.
